Lyrics

Destiny

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Is there a place where I

Could leave the world behind

And say goodbye to every painful memory

Where darkness ain't my destiny

This is my destiny

This is my destiny

Is this the life that you want?

I don't ever wanna feel this way

'Cause this is the life that you got

And no one else can ever take your place

I can't

I can't

I won't

I won't

Go down this road

It leaves me lost

I'm lost

Alone

Alone

How did I get so far from home?

Is there a place where I

Could leave the world behind

And say goodbye to every painful memory

Where darkness ain't my destiny

I'm running towards the light

I'm free of all the rage I thought would never leave

This darkness ain't my destiny

No

I make my destiny

No

I make my destiny

This is my destiny

Is this the life that you made?

It's getting harder to tell who I am

It's time for your life to change

Even if you don't think you can

I can't

I can't

I won't

I won't

Just lose myself

I've got so far

So Far

To go

To go

Just show me how to get back home

Is there a place where I

Could leave the world behind

And say goodbye to every painful memory

Where darkness ain't my destiny

I'm running towards the light

I'm free of all the rage I thought would never leave

This darkness ain't my destiny

No

I make my destiny

No

I make my destiny

Pushing till I put the pain away, get away

Bracing for the weight but it cannot break me

Living like I'll never be afraid, not afraid

This is my destiny

Pushing till I put the pain away, get away

Bracing for the weight but it cannot break me

Living like I'll never be afraid, not afraid

Is there a place where I

Could leave the world behind

And say goodbye to every painful memory

Where darkness ain't my destiny

I'm running towards the light

I'm free of all the rage I thought would never leave

This darkness ain't my destiny

No, I make my destiny

No, I make my destiny (I'm running towards the light)

No, I make my destiny (leave the past behind)

No, I make my destiny

This is my destiny
